Jingles & Intros

Even though the two terms are used interchangeably, there is a difference. Intros generally mark the start of a song (while outros are the finish). They aim to spark the listener’s curiosity and introduce the song’s melody. A jingle is frequently used in branding or advertising, and it can be associated with the audio logo of a company i.e. its acoustical voice. It connects the listener to a product or service even if it’s just a short two-tone sequence.

Research is key when it comes to choosing the right seller. Experience and skills at the right price are very important for shortlisting the top contenders. Once you’ve done that, get in touch and find out who can do the work on time and, most importantly, will have the right work ethic and personality to match yours. Don’t forget to ask what software and tools the freelancer is using to ensure they know their stuff to deliver quality output.

Every freelancer will have a set of requirements/questions that you’ll need to provide information on before they start working for you. It’s always best to contact them first and once you’ve committed to ordering, provide all required information promptly so you don’t slow down the delivery. Clearly state the purpose/target publishing platform for the project, e.g.podcast, commercial, YouTube etc, your preferred style such as instrumental and any other preferences you might have.

This really depends on the type of project and on your preferred style of work as well as that of the freelancer. If you want to keep a close tab on every step of the process, share this, in the beginning, to ensure the seller agrees. Most gigs come with a predefined number of revisions and if you’re not sure what’s included (and what’s not) in a revision, ask your seller before committing.

Experience and skill are top of mind when it comes to reasons for hiring a freelancer as opposed to doing it yourself (might seem cheap but will the final result be a good one) or hiring an expensive production company or advertising agency. Fiverr is the home of hundreds and thousands of freelancers from across the globe who can offer great value for money services and an almost unlimited choice of people to work with.
